Woman missing for nine years, family looks for answers

WILMINGTON, NC (WECT) – Almost nine years ago, a Wilmington woman disappeared from the area after last being seen dropping her daughter off at home.

According to authorities, 47-year-old Pamela Bradshaw was last seen Sept. 20, 2001 on Red Cross Street in Wilmington. She was seen talking to someone in a white vehicle that was idling in the middle of the street. She has never been heard from again.

There are few details available in Bradshaw's case, but officials know she is HIV positive and most likely hasn't received medical treatment.

Bradshaw's family came to the Wilmington area Monday in hopes of reopening her case to find answers in her disappearance.

"Its hard. You try to move on with your daily life because you have a husband, you have kids, and I try to keep it in the forefront so much, but its there," said Bradshaw's daughter, Nicky Allder.

Bradshaw is an African American woman with a surgical scar on her left breast. Her molars have been removed and she may use the alias name Denise Williams. She stands 5'9" tall and weighs around 110 pounds.

Anyone with information concerning this case is asked to contact the Wilmington Police Department (910) 343-3645.

The mass shooting at a Florida high school that left 17 people dead has sparked calls for walkouts, sit-ins and other actions on school campuses nationwide aimed at pushing lawmakers to pass tougher gun laws.
